    BE WARY OF THIS, SPECIFICALLY!

    This is a sad little attempt at comedy. Miscast, poor script and sadly a failure.

    Gary Of The Pacific is Terrific!

    Gary Of The Pacific is a great watch. It's a light hearted look at the ups and downs of Gary (Josh Thompson), the son of a pacific chief and less than successful real estate agent. With a great cast of local actors (Leigh Heart's cameo is very funny) and stunningly beautiful locations this film has real warmth and heart.
